Ch.Ch. Ch. Changes

Just like the seasons, change is inevitable. I have come to realize that. Especially in this season of my life. No pun intended. Big changes are taking place for us and I am very excited about them. I am excited about the future.

But I also wonder what will this season hold?
A baby?
A new house?
A splendid job?
New friends?

There is so much left unanswered but I know this much:

There is a time for everything. A season for every activity under heaven.

-Ecclesiastes 3:1

Monday Morning Meeting

As the hubs went off to his office this morning for staff meeting I thought I would have a meeting of my own. On here. With myself. Unless you choose to attend.

Topics to discuss...
1. Independance Day Happenings
2. Chores to be done
3. My latest desire
4. My latest baby name

Let do this thing...

1. Independance Day...me and N spend this Independance day with ourselves. Not technically with just ourselves but with no other immediate family. It was a little strange. Our 4th consisted of going to church (our church sings that song in which all the branches of the US military are acknowledged...I know, I am pathetic but I don't know the name...anyways-that song always gives me the chills because as the choir sings the men and women represented stand with pride and bask in their recognition. I simply love it). After church, we cooked lunch and then headed out to "The Park". The local place where everyone swims and hangsout. We stayed until dark and watched a fabulous display of fireworks. In my opinion it lasted 20 fireworks too long but all the kids loved it. So it was worth it.

2. My chores for today consist of cleaning my kitchen (which absoutly never stays clean), feeding my sweet animals, washing clothes, sweep the floors, go grocery shopping, and plan a back yard bible club for our community. Its going to be a full day.

3. My lastest desires these days are a sewing maching and a super sweet camera. One that can take pictures like hers. I am jealous. I told Nate that we had to buy one as soon as we start a family. I guess I will just have to be patient. I want a sewing maching that can sew lots of cool stitches and even do a little monogramming. Can I sew you ask...why Heavens NO! But that doesn't mean a girl can't dream.

4. And the biggest and the best... my latest baby name.

Carolyn Elaine

Darling right? Let me explain...My dad's middle name is Carroll. My mom's name is MaryLYN. Nate's mom's middle name is Aleine. Elaine is more my style. So with one name we include 3 grandparents! I am loving it.

And with that our meeting is concluded. I hope you enjoyed our time together. See ya soon.
